The Earl’s Bride

Category: Romance

A cold wind swept across the plain, carrying with it the scent of distant rain.

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

The market was bustling with merchants, their voices a chorus of bargains and boasts.

It was the kind of night when secrets refused to stay buried.

The morning light filtered through the curtains, painting the room in soft gold.

He was the kind of man who kept his word, even when it cost him.

She had not expected to see him again, not after all these years.

He stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down at the waves crashing below.

The end.
